The purpose of our study was to optimize the fermentation of quinoa and amaranth flours with non-conventional yeast strains in order to obtain a preferment with high potential in enhancing nutritional, textural and sensorial features of white wheat bread. Two biotypes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast—a wine yeast strain and a beer yeast strain—commercialized for their aromatic properties were used. Both aromatic yeast strains revealed good performance on fermenting pseudocereal substrates. Utilization of the obtained preferment in white wheat breadmaking led to bread with higher protein, fibres, mineral, total polyphenols content, with specific texture and aroma profile and high consumers’ acceptability. Keywords: quinoa; aromatic yeast; preferment; wheat bread 1. Introduction Nowadays, the development of new bakery products based on pseudocereals is considered to be a necessity rather than a choice. The attention toward these ancient grains has been renewed by the increasing demand for natural and health-beneficial food. From a nutritional point of view, reintroducing pseudocereals in the daily diet as a fortifying agent with functional added-value features, might offer to consumers a richer variety of beneficial compounds without altering the technological quality [1]. Among ancient grains, quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Wild, family Amaranthaceae) is a rich source of minerals, vitamins, fibers, fatty acids and has well-balanced protein and amino acid content that could develop dietary protein balance when utilized by it or mixed with cereal grains [2]. It is high in magnesium and iron contents as well as in vitamins such as vitamin E and those of the group B and could provide natural antioxidant compounds [3]. Amaranth (Amaranthus sp.) also belongs to the pseudocereals family. The nutritional quality of amaranth seed is higher than that of most cereal grains due to its protein quality, minerals, dietary fibers and lipid fraction which is rich in natural organic Foods 2019, 8, 443; doi:10.3390/foods8100443 www.mdpi.com/journal/foods Foods 2019, 8, 443 2 of 14 compounds that are involved in the metabolism of cholesterol and that could play an important role in lowering LDL-cholesterol in blood [4]. Wheat bread fortification could enable the development of a range of new baking products with enhanced nutritional value [5]. A large number of studies reported that bread supplemented with quinoa and amaranth flour had high nutritional value, while the consumers’ acceptance depends on the substitution level [4–9]. Generally, supplementation values up to 20% of quinoa or amaranth flour led to bread with enhanced nutritional, rheological and sensorial characteristics [4,5]. The combination of sourdough lactic acid bacteria and pseudocereals was successfully employed in the formulation of new products [10]. During sourdough fermentation, several beneficial transformations occur; by stimulating protein hydrolysis, the free aminoacid and bioactive peptide content are increased while the texture and aroma profile are improved [11]. Instead, the use of non-conventional yeast strains for bread dough fermentation has received relatively little attention. The increasing interest in artisanal products, as well as the demand for niche products with distinctive aroma profiles is leading to a renewed interest into the potential of non-conventional yeasts strains [12]. Non-conventional yeast strains can produce aroma profiles that are different from that produced by the commercial bakery strain [13]. Moreover, beside the impact on flavour, some non-conventional strains show exciting characteristics for bread fermentation, such as freeze tolerance, amylase activity or the ability to ferment complex sugars [14]. To the best of our knowledge, fermentation of quinoa and amaranth flours with aromatic yeast strains in order to obtain a preferment with high potential in enhancing nutritional, textural and sensorial features of white wheat bread was not investigated. Therefore, the purpose of our study was firstly, to optimize the fermentation of quinoa and amaranth flours with non-conventional yeast strains in order to obtain a preferment and secondly, to assess the preferment effect on bread quality. 2. Materials and Methods 2.1. Materials Quinoa flour (QF, originated from Peru) and amaranth flour (AF, originated from Poland) were purchased from specialized stores in Romania. According to the producers, both flours were stone-mortar milled. Wheat flour (WF) was produced by a local mill (Goodmills Romania, Targu-Mures, Romania) and sold as type 650 according to ash content by Romanian classification (humidity 14.1%; wet gluten 29.3%; ash 0.63%; Falling Number 345s). Two biotypes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast (Lallemand, Montréal, Canada) commercialized to their aromatic properties: a wine yeast strain (A17) and a beer yeast strain (A18), in active dry form, were used. All reagents were of analytical grade. Analytical reagents and chemicals were purchased from Sigma Aldrich (St. Louis, MO, USA), except for Boehringer-Mannheim enzymatic kits (starch, maltose/sucrose/glucose, ethanol) which were provided by R-Biopharm (Darmstadt, Germany). 2.2. Preferment Preparation The aromatic yeast strains A17, A18 were rehydrated in warm water (35 ◦C) at a ratio water/yeasts = 15 for 15 min. From the rehydrated yeasts, two doses of 1% and 2% respectively, were taken and mixed with the corresponding amount of flours and water (Table1) then incubated for 18 h at 30 ◦C (according to the instructions of use provided by the producer and supplier). The ratios between quinoa:wheat flours were 100:0 (A); 70:30 (B); 50:50 (C). Yeasts, amaranth and water amounts were relative to the mix of quinoa:wheat flours (Table1).

ABSTRACT Impact of processed conditions and type of starter cultivars on characteristics of wheat dough bread by using mixed starter cultivars of Sacch. cerevisiae and L. plantarum was estimated. L. plantarum seemed to be more effective in combination with Sacch. cerevisiae on the dough volume. Dough produced by starter containing L. plantarum characterized with lower PH and higher total titratable acidity (TTA) and moisture content, in comparison with control treatment. Highly significant differences in aroma and crumb texture were recorded with bread produced by starter culture containing L. plantarum. The obtained results also revealed significant differences in bread firmness which reflected the staling and its rate among the tested treatments after 1, 3, 5 and 6 days during storage time at room temperature. Data also confirmed a processing technique using L. planturium mixed with Sacch.cerevisia to enhance organoleptic properties of produced bread. INTRODUCTION Cereal fermentation is one of the oldest biotechnological processes, dating back to ancient Egypt, where both beer and bread were produced by using yeasts and lactic acid bacteria (LAB), Clarke and Arendt, (2005). Starters composed of specific individual LAB, or mixed with yeasts, became available a few years ago allowing the production of a full sourdough in one- stage process.

  • AP-42, CH 9.13.4: Yeast Production
    9.13.4 Yeast Production 9.13.4.1 General1 Baker’s yeast is currently manufactured in the United States at 13 plants owned by 6 major companies. Two main types of baker’s yeast are produced, compressed (cream) yeast and dry yeast. The total U. S. production of baker’s yeast in 1989 was 223,500 megagrams (Mg) (245,000 tons). Of the total production, approximately 85 percent of the yeast is compressed (cream) yeast, and the remaining 15 percent is dry yeast. Compressed yeast is sold mainly to wholesale bakeries, and dry yeast is sold mainly to consumers for home baking needs. Compressed and dry yeasts are produced in a similar manner, but dry yeasts are developed from a different yeast strain and are dried after processing. Two types of dry yeast are produced, active dry yeast (ADY) and instant dry yeast (IDY). Instant dry yeast is produced from a faster-reacting yeast strain than that used for ADY. The main difference between ADY and IDY is that ADY has to be dissolved in warm water before usage, but IDY does not. 9.13.4.2 Process Description1 Figure 9.13.4-1 is a process flow diagram for the production of baker’s yeast. The first stage of yeast production consists of growing the yeast from the pure yeast culture in a series of fermentation vessels. The yeast is recovered from the final fermentor by using centrifugal action to concentrate the yeast solids. The yeast solids are subsequently filtered by a filter press or a rotary vacuum filter to concentrate the yeast further.

Th ey have potential use in medicine and pharmacy, food, cosmetic and chemical industries, in veterinary medicine and feed production. Th e use of diff erent β-glucans in food industry and their main characteristics important for food production are described in this paper. Th is review focuses on benefi cial properties and application of β-glucans isolated from diff erent yeasts, especially those that are considered as waste from brewing industry. Spent brewer’s yeast, a by-product of beer production, could be used as a raw-material for isolation of β-glucan. In spite of the fact that large quantities of brewer’s yeast are used as a feedstuff , certain quantities are still treated as a liquid waste. β-Glucan is one of the compounds that can achieve a greater commercial value than the brewer’s yeast itself and maximize the total profi tability of the brewing process. β-Glucan isolated from spent brewer’s yeast possesses properties that are benefi cial for food production. Th erefore, the use of spent brewer’s yeast for isolation of β-glucan intended for food industry would represent a payable technological and economical choice for breweries.

Grain is malted, dried, crushed and mixed with hot water to produce wort. Yeast is added to the sweet, viscous wort, after which fermentation occurs. The biochemical events that occur during fermentation reflect the genotype of the yeast strain used, and its phenotypic expression is influenced by the composition of the wort and the conditions established in the fermenting vessel. Although wort is complex and not completely characterized, its content in amino acids indubitably affects the production of some minor metabolic products of fermentation which contribute to the flavour of beer. These metabolic products include higher alcohols, esters, carbonyls and sulfur-containing compounds. The formation of these products is comprehensively reviewed in this paper. Furthermore, the role of amino acids in the beer flavour, in particular their relationships with flavour active compounds, is discussed in light of recent data. Keywords: amino acids; beer; flavour; higher alcohols; esters; Vicinal Diketones (VDK); sulfur compounds 1.

Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of 13 sourdough-related yeasts on FODMAP degradation, especially fructans. First, a model system containing a typical wheat carbohydrate profile was applied to evaluate the growth rate of each yeast strain. Additionally, changes in the sugar composition, for up to four days, were monitored by high-pressure anion-exchange chromatography (HPAEC). A more realistic approach with a wheat flour suspension was used to characterize CO2 production according to the Einhorn method. The reduction of the total fructans was analyzed using an enzymatic method. Furthermore, a fingerprint of the present fructans with different degrees of polymerization was analyzed by HPAEC. The results revealed strong differences in the examined yeast strains’ ability to degrade fructans, in both the model system and wheat flour. Overall, Saccharomyces cerevisiae isolated from Austrian traditional sourdough showed the highest degree of degradation of the total fructan content and the highest gas building capacity, followed by Torulaspora delbrueckii.

Mead is one of the oldest beverages and it is easily obtained by the fermentation of a mixture of honey and water. However, it is still less studied compared to other beverages and does not have industrialized production. It is prepared as a handmade product. The origin of the honey used to formulate the mead creates differences on the final product characteristics. In this study, fermentation occurred at temperatures of about 22.1 ± 0.4°C after a previous pasteurization and inoculation. Saccharomyces cerevisiae (K1-LALVIN 1116) was used to produce the mead that was prepared in order to obtain dry mead by mixing 200 g L-1 of honey in water.

It is a national staple in Ethiopia that is eaten daily in virtually every household. Despite the fact that injera is a favorite staple food, starters have not been evaluated for the production of rice-based injera. Combination of starter cultures of lactic acid (Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus fermentum) and yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and irsho (back slopping) were used to ferment rice batter during 96 h. Changes in pH, titratable acidity (TA) and microbial count were analyzed at 6 h intervals and consumer acceptability was done at 24 h and 48 h. LAB starters and their co-cultures yeast decreased pH from 6.35 to 4.5 and increased titratable acidity from 0.33% to 0.95% (lactic acid w/w ) within 18-24 h while in the spontaneous fermentation with traditional irsho it took 48 h-54 h to attain pH and titratable acidity value of 0.38% and 0.93%, respectively.

The sugary starting materials may emanate from cereal starches (which require enzymatic pre-hydrolysis) in the case of beers and whiskies, sucrose-rich plants (molasses or sugar juice from sugarcane) in the case of rums, or from fruits (which do not require pre-hydrolysis) in the case of wines and brandies. In the presence of sugars, together with other essential nutrients such as amino acids, minerals and vitamins, S. cerevisiae will conduct fermentative metabolism to ethanol and carbon dioxide (as the primary fermentation metabolites) as the cells strive to make energy and regenerate the coenzyme NAD+ under anaerobic conditions. Yeasts will also produce numerous secondary metabolites which act as important beverage flavour congeners, including higher alcohols, esters, carbonyls and sulphur compounds. These are very important in dictating the final flavour and aroma characteristics of beverages such as beer and wine, but also in distilled beverages such as whisky, rum and brandy. Therefore, yeasts are of vital importance in providing the alcohol content and the sensory profiles of such beverages. This Introductory Chapter reviews, in general, the growth, physiology and metabolism of S.

A baking test by the sponge-dough method with a standard formulation of white bread showed that breads produced using the hybrid differed in aroma and taste from those made using a conventional baking strain. Thus, the hybrid may be used to produce baked goods Short communication with diverse quality, which may be more acceptable to specific consumers. Keywords: Bread making, Hybrid, Saccharomyces mikatae, Saccharomyces cerevisiae INTRODUCTION During a survey of local genetic resources, we found a fermentative yeast strain, identified as S. mikatae, which was unsuitable for usual bread making as it Saccharomyces is a teleomorphic ascomycetous genus that generally exhibits exhibited a defect in maltose fermentation.
